Chocolate and Strawberry Cream Sandwich Cookies...

Scrounging for something to eat I found a unopened carton of heavy cream that I had intended to use for hot chocolate whipped cream but never did...it was about to expire...So, butter making ensued. But it was too much for butter so with the other half of it, we made whipped cream...

This is how I operate, start one thing, get distracted end up doing several things at once...

What my plan was with the whipped cream I hadn't really known...and then, these...

Isn't funny how one little snack desire can turn into an afternoon project. Not that these were particularly difficult to make, they just took some time as the dough needs to sit in the refrigerator for a bit.

I opted to slice the dough, a la refrigerator cookies, rather than rolling it out and using cookie cutters, mostly because I am lazy...but also because...cookie sandwiches...

Circles are easier to spread homemade whipped cream onto than shapes.

I mixed a tablespoon or more of the last of our homemade strawberry jam into the whipped cream, spread it atop one cookie and lightly laid another cookie on top of that to make a sandwich cookie. I let the cream filled sandwiches firm up some on a cookie sheet in the fridge and then pulled them out, tucked the cookies into a dish and keep them in the freezer...

These are the yummiest, slightly salty, not too sweet with just the right amount of chocolate and creaminess cookies! They are almost an ice cream sandwich, but better...
